Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2755006A1] Provided is a liquid-leak inspection apparatus capable of inspecting presence/absence of liquid leak from a sealed container without being affected by conductivities of a material of the container and filled liquid even when water or the like gets adhered to the sealed container prior to its pressurization. The apparatus includes a conveyer device 1 for conveying a sealed container A filled with liquid and having flexibility, a pressurization device 2 for pressurizing the sealed container A from its outside during conveyance thereof by the conveyer device 1, an image capture device 3 for capturing image of the sealed container A during pressurization thereof by the pressurization device 2 together with its background, and a determination device 4 for determining presence/absence of liquid leak from the sealed container A, based on image information acquired by the image capture device 3. The determination device 4 is configured to check whether or not image information of discharged liquid discharged from the sealed container A into the air is included in image information of the background and to determine presence of liquid leak from the sealed container A if it is determined that the image information of discharged liquid is included in the image information of the background.
